100% grass fed frass finished beef liver - superfood or straight up poison?

[mmKay]

I'm looking for a reliable source of vitamin A. I thought about high quality cod liver oil but it's expensive, and the ones that I've seen haven't been tested for heavy metals. 

I do have access to 100% grass fed grass finished beef?? liver, but as you see in the screenshot I  have some concerns and questions. 

Thoughts?

I agree with Leo in this one. Liver is the organ across a lot of animals (including the human being) where toxic stuff is processed. It's not wise to eat that, regarding what the paleo or keto fanboys might say.

Just eat carrot and broccoli. You can buy it in fresh juice format if you dont want to cook it. Liver tastes like shit. 

[Leo Gura]

Why risk it and pay lots of money for it too?

You can buy vitamin A pills cheaply:

@Leo Gura Tablets have a low absorption rate. I think these are the best micronutrients to get: https://go.caltonnutrition.com/spnutreince-v1?_ga=2.7013873.2125534745.1638818000-1935427617.1638818000

If you can get it from an unvaccinated animal, then it's a mega-superfood. Whenever I had a real good raw liver, it literally got me high.

Vaccines are full of heavy metals, and the ones they give animals are even worse than they give humans. The heavy metals, along with the other poisons, are stored in the organs and in the fat tissue.

@mmKay  If you're buying grass fed grass finished pasture raised liver, then you will get a quality product.

Animal vitamins are usually in the right ratios for better absorption to the body.

As you already said, phytotoxins block mineral absorption from plant foods.

I wouldn't wonder if Leo used to jug down kale green smoothies and the like, why his hypothyroidism got so bad.

 

In terms of nutrient density, animal foods, especially liver is number one. Just science - not some diet dogma.

The liver does not store toxins, it metabolizes them. The liver also metabolizes all the good stuff.

 

It comes down to is the animal toxic then their produce will be toxic (organs more than flesh but still flesh as well)

I have never done kale smoothies.

Hypothyroidism has little to do with that.

There is no guarantee whatsoever that your grass fed pasture raised organic cow is not filled with toxins and heavy metals from the food and water it consumes. That grass is probably watered with the cheapest polluted water and sprayed with pesticides which all gets filtered by the cow's liver and goes straight into you. And you're paying $50/bottle for that.

Consuming organ meat is a terrible gamble.

@Leo Gura Are you saying that liver is worse than eating any other part of the cow? my understanding is that the liver does not store the toxins, its not like a water filter.

Of course.

Then again, you probably don't want to eat the butt hole.

But all the organs are gonna hold the most toxins. Lean meat should be cleanest. Fat also holds toxins.

It's literally the blood filter of your whole body.

[herghly]

Leo's correct on most things, but here he's incorrect. Organs are a super food.

so we should raise cows only to eat their lean meats and then dump the rest?

that's a horrible waste though

@mmKay Leo has extremely high standards for health, which almost no one follows. Literally everybody would fail Leo’s health tests. And yet, many people still live to their 80s, which is the biggest reason to be healthy. Eat the liver my friend.

@How to be wise Liver is a god damn superfood

As long as you don’t buy it from a restaurant. Cook it yourself.

[Leo Gura]

How the fuck do you know what's in that liver?

Have you ever done a liver cleanse and seen the shit that comes out of your own liver?

I can show you photos of sludge I detoxed from my liver. Entire cups full.

[Average Investor]

@Leo Gura I was doing a liver detox and my pee looked like an energy drink for a few days lol. 

[mmKay]

Today my 300g of liver will arrive. Ill take the risk and see how it makes me feel. I'll cut off 5 years off  my life for personal science bois. 

And it is called " Live-r"

If its bad for your health we should call it "deathe-r"

What about eating some lamb testicles? I heard they contain bioavailable testosterone and I could use some for mi patchy beard ?
